@pizzana Margherita Pizza
Ingredients:
4 1/2 cups bread flour
2 cups water
1 teaspoon yeast
1 1/2 tablespoons salt, plus dash for sauce
1 can San Marzano whole peeled tomatoes
Fior Di Latte cheese (or another dry mozzarella)
Parmigiano cheese
Olive oil
Fresh basil
.
Directions:
1. Preheat your oven to 500 degrees.
2. Crush your can of tomatoes in a bowl by hand. Add a dash of salt. Mix by hand and set aside.
3. Add yeast to water, mix (Daniele does it with his finger!💪🏼). Pour into a bowl with 3 cups of flour. Dig in with your hands. Knead for about 5 minutes— by bringing the bottom of the dough to the top center. Add more flour as necessary as you go.
4. Move dough to a flat working station and let rest for 2-3 minutes. One more quick knead and then give it an hour under a— hot tip— stainless steel bowl. 🤯
5. When ready, divide the ball into four.
6. The dough is airy, so you will take your cute ball and push the air to the sides as you flatten into a sphere. You don’t need it very thin. About 10” in diameter.
7. Drizzle oil in a circle following the outline of the crust. Rub in a little bit with your fingers.
8. Spoon on your sauce (don’t be stingy, Daniele uses a lot!)
9. Add basil (again, Daniele uses quite a bit!)
10. Bake for about 10 minutes, or until your crust is starting to brown and bounces back.
11. Remove and add your cheese and another swirl of olive oil!
12. Bake for 2-3 minutes more, just enough for the cheese to melt.
13. Yum.

I got this easy recipe from my friend Jeri. Good as meatball sandwich.
2 lbs frozen cooked meatballs, thawed.
2 bottles (18 oz each) barbecue sauce. For one bottle use Famous Dave’s barbecue sauce and for the other bottle use Sweet Baby Ray’s barbecue sauce.
Your favorite hoagie type buns to make meatball sandwiches.
In medium bowl, mix barbecue sauce, mixing well. Pour on top of meatballs in slow cooker; stir to coat.
Cover; cook on High heat setting 2 1/2 to 3 hours or until thermometer inserted in center of meatball reads 165°F. Stir before serving to evenly coat meatballs in barbecue sauce mixture.
Crock Pot Funeral Potatoes
I love ‘funeral’ potatoes. I had this slow cooker version at a reception at work and it was delicious.
Ingredients:
Directions:
Sauté minced onion in butter in large pan.
Strain soups before adding them if you do not want bits of mushroom or chicken in your potatoes.
Add strained soups, milk, sour cream and 2 cups of shredded cheese to minced onion. Heat on medium high heat until cheese is melted and well blended. Sprinkle garlic salt in and mix well using a whisk.
Add frozen potatoes and stir until they are covered in soup mixture.
Put in crock pot for 4 – 4 ½ hours on high, stir every 30 minutes or they will burn on the bottom and edges.
15-20 min before you serve, sprinkle the last cup of cheddar cheese on top to melt. (I omitted this step.)

Photo from Six Sisters Stuff
Sara made these delicious enchiladas for us the other night. She got the recipe here: https://www.sixsistersstuff.com/recipe/honey-lime-chicken-enchiladas-recipe/
Ingredients:
6 Tablespoons honey
5 Tablespoons lime juice
1 Tablespoon chili powder
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
About 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts (cooked and shredded – about 3-4 cups)
1 (16 ounce) can green enchilada sauce
10 flour tortillas
2 cups shredded cheddar cheese (divided)
1 cup heavy cream
Instructions:
Whisk together marinade ingredients and toss with shredded chicken in a resealable gallon-sized bag or airtight
container.
Let chicken mixture marinate in the fridge for at least 30 minutes, but preferably a few hours.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Pour 1/2 cup enchilada sauce on the bottom of a 9 X 13 inch baking pan.
Fill the tortillas with chicken, saving marinade (if any left), and shredded cheese, reserving about 1 cup of cheese
to sprinkle on top of enchiladas.
Placed rolled tortillas into prepared pan.
Mix the remaining enchilada sauce with heavy cream and leftover marinade, if any, and pour on top of enchiladas.
Sprinkle with remaining cheese.
Bake for 30 minutes, or until brown and crispy on top.
This is a comfort food dish that is easy to make and you probably already have the ingredients on hand.
